I found this entry on the xcart forum:<br /><br />As many of you may know, as of July 1, 2010 you will be required to use a PA-DSS certified shopping cart if you want to accept credit card payments ON your site. That means using a payment gateway like Authorize.net AIM where the user inputs their credit card data on the final page of checkout. This requirement will be necessary to maintain PCI-DSS compliance, which is required for ALL companies who process credit cards for sales.<br /><br />An alternative will be to use an offsite gateway, meaning sending the user to the actual payment gateway site (like 2checkout and PayPal) where you enter the credit card data. This will allow you to avoid the PA-DSS compliance issue, but as you also know it looks rather unprofessional.5h4d0whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06558705478446629823noreply@blogger.com
